So what is the position of the legal authorities with regards to installing a placard (non-required) on an experimental, home built aircraft?
We have placed several placards on our landing gear, and in the cockpit, taken directly from a WWII fighter aircraft. The procedure stated on the placard does not apply to this plane, and the placard is installed to create an authentic look, in other words, "eye candy".
It is highly doubtful that anyone would ever make the error of following the directions stated on the placards, as it is simply impossible. And these do not affect the safe operation of the aircraft.
Note that the FAA required placards have been installed.
What say you?
